Psalms 78:1-8

A Call to Hear God's Law

Psalms 78:1-8
1
A psalm for Asaph. O God, the heathens are come into thy inheritance, they have defiled thy holy temple: they have made Jerusalem as a place to keep fruit.
2
They have given the dead bodies of thy servants to be meat for the fowls of the air: the flesh of thy saints for the beasts of the earth.
3
They have poured out their blood as water, round about Jerusalem and there was none to bury them.
4
We are become a reproach to our neighbours: a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
5
How long, O Lord, wilt thou be angry for ever: shall thy zeal be kindled like a fire?
6
Pour out thy wrath upon the nations that have not known thee: and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
7
Because they have devoured Jacob; and have laid waste his place.
8
Remember not our former iniquities: let thy mercies speedily prevent us, for we are become exceeding poor.
